Omineca Appoints a Manager of Corporate and Business Development

Saskatoon, SK. July 27, 2018 – Omineca Mining and Metals Ltd. (TSXV: OMM) (“Omineca” or the

“Company”) announces the appointment of Mr. Dean Nawata as Manager of Corporate and Business

Development. Mr. Nawata has over 20 years of business experience in the natural resources sector and

capital markets, holding executive and board positions of several resource exploration companies. More

specific to the task, as former vice president of Barkerville Gold Mines, a gold exploration and production

company located 40 km from Omineca’s Wingdam Project, Mr. Nawata oversaw critical aspects of that

company’s transitioning from a gold explorer to a gold producer.

Tom MacNeill, President and CEO of Omineca states, “We are pleased to welcome the addition of Dean’s

experience and insights to the advancement of the Wingdam Project. Omineca has a detailed understanding

and plan for extracting the gold trapped beneath Lightning Creek, following the Company’s bulk sample

completed in 2012 which successfully recovered 5.4 kilograms of placer gold using freeze technology”.

The Company also reports that it is cancelling the private placement as announced previously on April 12,

2018 and announces the launch of its new website, ominecaminingandmetals.com. Omineca intends to

proceed with a summer airborne survey on its properties in the Cariboo gold region of British Columbia

that is to be completed by the end of August.

About Omineca Mining and Metals Ltd.

Omineca Mining and Metals Ltd. controls a 100% in terest in the Wingdam Project through its wholly

owned subsidiary CVG Mining Ltd. The 2700 ha Wingdam Project is located 45 km east of Quesnel B.C.

on the Barkerville highway and provides a unique oppor tunity for Omineca to develop near-term placer

gold production in a proven mining district. The property overlies both placer and hard-rock tenures along

the Lightning Creek valley, where topographic conditi ons have created a deep overburden accumulation

which effectively resulted in a large portion of the channel being excluded from conventional surface placer

mining activity.
